Escaping Into Love: A Sweet Mail Order Bride Story (The Runaway Brides of Colorado #1)

Southern belle Elizabeth Brown had nothing left after her uncle stripped her of her home and all her belongings. Desperate to get away from him and turn her luck around, she answers an ad and travels from Georgia to Colorado to marry a complete stranger.

A romantic adventurist by heart, she was excited about the bright future that lay ahead of her. She can hardly wait to get to her new home and begin her new life of happiness and prosperity. Her betrothed is Mason Reeve, a well respected and successful man in the thriving town of Plainsville.

Sheriff Clayton Ward has no doubt that popular town philanthropist, Mason Reeve, is not the honest and Godly man everyone thinks he is. Since he can’t prove his suspicions, he watches and keeps his mouth shut. When Elizabeth arrives in town and Mason introduces her as his future bride, Clayton believes this beautiful young woman might be the way he'll bring Mason's faults to light. Maybe she'll even be the key to bringing Mason down.

Someone who will be that close to Mason will certainly see through his deception, or will she be loyal to a fault. Clayton hopes this woman will choose truth over loyalty when the time comes.

Before long, Elizabeth will find herself embroiled in a mystery she can't ignore. By the time she realizes who she can trust, it might be too late. Will Elizabeth escape in time to win the love of the only man she can truly love?
